Fajita Burritos

I don't know about you guys, but we love Mexican food and I am constantly trying to cook it at home. Spicy, spicy, spicy is great. I was gonna' grill steaks tonight and do some risotto, but Donnie had a different idea- hence the yummy dinner. Give it a shot because this one is quick, easy, healthy, and delicious.


This is what everything looks like when you finish grilling. Just roll it up and enjoy. Donnie like to top his with salsa and munch on his grilled peppers while he eats.






Pictures of grilled peppers. It really makes thema bit milder if you grill them, so try it out. This is a cubanelle and a jalapeno.

Cooking Ingredients:
2 ribeye steaks with nice marbeling
2 tablespoons Lowry's Seasoning Salt
2 tablespoons Teriyaki Sauce
1 tablespoons Worcestershire Sauce
1 tablespoons garlic salt
pepper to taste
red pepper flakes to taste
1 Vidalia onion
1 green pepper
1 jalapeno
1 cubanelle pepper
2 tablespoons of Canola Oil
4 whole wheat tortillas
1 cup of Daisy Sour Cream (light)
1 avocado

Cooking Instructions:
About and hour before you want to start cooking, marinate your steaks. Add the Lowry's, pepper, and Teriyaki sauce to one side. Flip the steaks and add the garlic salt, pepper, red pepper flakes, and Worcestershire. Let the steaks come to room temperature while marinating.

Meanwhile, slice your onion and green pepper. Add the canola oil to a cast iron skillet, then add the onion and pepper slices. Top with a sprinkle of garlic salt and crack some freshly ground black pepper over the vegetables, also add a pinch of red pepper flakes for spice and let it sit until you head to the grill. Wash and lightly brush your jalapeno and cubanelle with canola oil as well before adding to the grill.

Preheat your grill to medium heat. Add the steaks (they should sizzle when they touch the grill), your skillet of green pepper and onion, and your jalapeno and cubanelle on the top rack. Cook your skillet vegetables until they are slightly softened. Grill your hot peppers until they begin to blister. Grill your steaks to the desired temperature, but we like medium.

Just before you turn your grill off, throw your tortillas on and grill them until slightly warm. This will take about 30 seconds.

Slice a fresh avocado. Slice your steaks into long strips after you have let them rest for about ten minutes, making sure to trim excess fat. Build your burritos in the following order. Tortilla, provolone, steak, avocado, sour cream, salsa (if you like it). Yum!
